Andrew Melville (1545-1622): Writings, Reception, and Reputation
ISBN: 9781409426936 / Angielski / Twarda / 322 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Andrew Melville is chiefly remembered today as a defiant leader of radical Protestantism in Scotland, John Knox s heir and successor, the architect of a distinctive Scottish Presbyterian kirk and a visionary reformer of the Scottish university system. While this view of Melville s contribution to the shaping of Protestant Scotland has been criticised and revised in recent scholarship, his broader contribution to the development of the neo-Latin culture of early modern Britain has never been given the attention it deserves. Yet, as this collection shows, Melville was much more than simply a...

Edward Hicks: Pacifist Bishop at War: The Diaries of a World War One Bishop
ISBN: 9780745956534 / Angielski / Miękka / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Edward Hicks was the Bishop of Lincoln during the First World War - a cleric who had condemned the war but had to watch his sons go off to fight - one not to return. He kept detailed diaries - full of often indiscreet comments - and through them we see a man wrestling with his own conscience and beliefs, in a very public role. He was also a strong supporter of votes for women - highly unusual at that time - and a supporter of teetotalism, again, an unusual stance for a C of E dignatory. This book will be a fascinating glimpse into the impact the War had on those who waited at home, and tried...

Part of the One Church?: The Ordination of Women and Anglican Identity
ISBN: 9781848256279 / Angielski / Miękka / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Part of One Church offers a classical understanding of the Church of England's identity and its place as part of the 'One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church'. Roger Greenacre explains the theological principles behind Anglo-Catholic views of the ordination of women, addressing issues that remain topical and significant. Though a supporter of the women's ordination himself, he articulates with creative courtesy the theological and ecclesiological reasoning why so many cannot accept it. Roger's frame of reference is wide: his thinking and writing are deeply enriched by the Anglican tradition...

Early Modern Jesuits Between Obedience and Conscience During the Generalate of Claudio Acquaviva (1581-1615)
ISBN: 9781409457060 / Angielski / Twarda / 218 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Society of Jesus was founded by Ignatius Loyola on a principal of strict obedience to papal and superiors' authorities, yet the nature of the Jesuits's work and the turbulent political circumstances in which they operated, inevitably brought them into conflict with the Catholic hierarchy. In order to better understand and contextualise the debates concerning obedience, this book examines the Jesuits of south-western Europe during the generalate of Claudio Acquaviva. Acquaviva's thirty year generalate (1581a "1615) marked a challenging time for the Jesuits, during which their very system...

So Many Christians, So Few Lions: Is There Christianophobia in the United States?
ISBN: 9781442224063 / Angielski / Twarda / 214 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. So Many Christians, So Few Lions is a provocative look at anti-Christian sentiments in America. Drawing on both quantitative and qualitative research, authors George Yancey and David A. Williamson show that even though (or perhaps because) Christianity is the dominant religion in the United States, bias against Christians also exists--particularly against conservative Christians--and that this bias is worth understanding. The book does not attempt to show the prevalence of anti-Christian sentiments--called Christianophobia--but rather to document it, to dig into where and how it exists, to...

Edward Bouverie Pusey and the Oxford Movement
ISBN: 9781783083183 / Angielski / Miękka / 174 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Oxford Movement, initiating what is commonly called the Catholic Revival of the Church of England and of global Anglicanism more generally, has been a perennial subject of study by historians since its beginning in the 1830s. But the leader of the movement whose name was most associated with it during the nineteenth century, Edward Bouverie Pusey, has long been neglected by historical studies of the Anglican Catholic Revival. What attention has been paid to him by scholars has produced a largely negative picture of this complex man. This collection of essays seeks to redress the...

Public Religious Disputation in England, 1558-1626
ISBN: 9781472415554 / Angielski / Twarda / 252 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. With a focus on England from the accession of Elizabeth I to the mid-1620s, this book examines the practice of direct, scholarly disputation between fundamentally opposing and oftentimes antagonistic Catholic, Protestant and nonconformist puritan divines. Introducing a form of discourse hitherto neglected in studies of religious controversy, the volume works to rehabilitate a body of material only previously examined as part of the great, subjective mass of polemic produced in the wake of the Reformation. In so doing, it argues that public religious disputation - debate between opposing...

A Fruitful Exhortation: A Guide to the Homilies
ISBN: 9781906327248 / Angielski / Miękka / 150 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Along with the Thirty-nine Articles, the Book of Common Prayer and the Ordinal, the two books of Homilies form part of the constitutive documents of the Church of England and are therefore of considerable importance for understanding both its history and its doctrine. But whereas the others are well-known and easily obtainable, the Homilies remain obscure.
Having said that, there is still much in the Homilies that is of great value and it would be a pity to lose that because of the formidable difficulties involved in tackling the original texts today. This Guide therefore aims to provide... Along with the Thirty-nine Articles, the Book of Common Prayer and the Ordinal, the two books of Homilies form part of the constitutive documents of t...

ISBN: 9781906327255 / Angielski / Miękka / 68 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The celebration of the 350th anniversary of the 1662 Book of Common Prayer has helped to stimulate a renewed interest in its teaching and fundamental contribution to Anglican identity. Archbishop Cranmer and others involved in the English Reformation knew well that the content and shape of the services and doctrine set out in the Prayer Book were vital ways of teaching congregations biblical truth and the principles of the Christian gospel. However, the Prayer Book Catechism is a neglected educational resource for the Church of England. For centuries it provided the framework for instructing...
